Intraocular lens (IOL) dislocation is a common complication of phacoemulsification. We describe a technique for retrieving a dislocated IOL using 23-gauge transconjunctival sutureless pars plana vitrectomy and repositioning the IOL in the ciliary sulcus in cases with adequate capsule support. This technique provides the benefits of sutureless surgery despite the complication of a dislocated IOL.
